ISBN: 1402014430 ISBN-13: 9781402014437 Publisher: Springer OUR PRICE: $161.49 Product Type: Hardcover - Other Formats Published: September 2003 Annotation: This volume delves into a spectrum of theoretical as well as applied aspects of high-resolution stratigraphic approaches in paleontology. It explores how increasingly detailed knowledge of the fossil record can enhance our understanding of the evolution of life on Earth and also allows geoscientists to address a broad range of important evolutionary and environmental questions in this arena. This volume contains a CD-Rom with the CONOP9 program; a quantitative, biostratigraphic tool developed by P.M. Sadler, W.G. Kemple, and M.A. Kooser as applied and described in Chapters 2, 3, and 13. This CD-Rom can be read with Microsoft Windows; all 90's versions, XP and NT platforms. |

A 'zipped' version of the program CONOP9 2007 along with read-me files, sample files, and other documentation are available via a web site (see below). An earlier version of CONOP9 was initially supplied with 'High-Resolution Approaches in Stratigraphic Paleontology' (PJ Harries, editor) and described in Chapter 13 of that volume. This is an updated version of the program, and the documentation supplied with this version supersedes the information supplied in that chapter.
